Assign a randomization list to a randomization design and study version

You typically need to assign a randomization list to a randomization design and study version if you created a second randomization list for a randomization design (such as if you added a treatment arm to a study and needed to create another randomization list to support it). This procedure also applies to rollover studies.

You can perform this action in all three modes: Testing, Training and Production.

Want to see how to perform this task? Watch the video below.

  1. Access the study version for a given mode as described in Open the design of a study version.
  2. Along the top, click Study Supplies.
  3. Below the study name, make sure the Randomizations tab is selected.
  4. From the Randomization List drop-down, select Manage.
  5. Along the top in the dialog, select either:.
    • Production Lists
    • Testing Lists
    • Training Lists
  6. In the table, find the randomization list you need to use in a study version, and make sure that it is associated with both the appropriate randomization design and the study version that is being used for the mode you selected.
  7. To assign a randomization list to an additional study version or randomization design:
    1. If needed, delete an existing association.
      Remember that each combination of study version and randomization design can be associated with only one randomization list for a given mode.
    2. In the Study Version column for the randomization list, click +Add Study Version.
    3. Fill in the fields. To view tips for completing a field, click into the field.

      Note:

      Even if two randomization designs have the same stratum factors, a randomization list that was generated for one randomization design cannot be associated with the other randomization design.
    4. Click Add.
  8. Click Close.
Tips:
  • Click the pencil button (pencil button) to the right of an assignment to change the randomization designs that are associated with a study version and randomization list. If the pencil is grayed out, the study version has been archived, so you can no longer make any changes (though you can delete the association entirely).
